Full disk restore of Hetzner Cloud Server using BorgBackup
I am writing this short documentation, because I have a cloud server, that I don’t want to pay for the whole time. I need it at most 2-3 times a month, but the setup is rather extensive. For backup i use the command: borg create -v --stats \ $REPOSITORY::'{now:%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M}' \ / \ --exclude /dev \ --exclude /proc \ --exclude /sys \ --exclude /var/run \ --exclude /run \ --exclude /lost+found \ --exclude /mnt \ --exclude /var/lib/lxcfs For the restore I copy the repository to a cloud volume. This can be done using sftp or scp. You can use any cloud server from Hetzner for this (afaik). ...
